The pyramids of China are
approximately 100 ancient mounds, many of which were
used for burial. Most of them are located within 100
kilometers of the city of Xi'an, on the Qin Chuan
Plains in the Shaanxi Province, central China.

The existence of pyramids in China
has come in two stages. Most early stories were
focused on the existence of "Great White Pyramid." A
photograph of this pyramid in the Qinling mountains
was taken by Americans in 1945, but remained in
military files for 45 years. US Air Force pilot
James Gaussman is said to have seen a white jewel
topped pyramid during a flight between India and
China during World War II, but there is scant
evidence for a source on this story.

However, it is now believed that the
Gaussman story was actually based on Colonel Maurice
Sheahan, Far Eastern director of Trans World
Airlines, who told an eyewitness account of his
encounter with a pyramid in the March 28, 1947
edition of The New York Times. A photo of Sheahan's
pyramid appeared in The New York Sunday News on
March 30, 1947. It is this photograph that later
became attributed to James Gaussman.

It is now known, thanks to efforts
of Chris Maier, that the particular pyramid shown in
the photo is the Maoling Mausoleum. This pyramid
sits just outside of Xi'an. In 1994, German tour
operator and author Hartwig Hausdorf was noted for
photographing and studying several pyramids.

He drew attention to the structures'
existence with his 1994 book Die Weisse Pyramide,
the subject of an article in Nexus Magazine in 1995
by Philip Coppens, later translated into English
under the revised title The Chinese Roswell (1998).

The pyramids of Xi'an can now be
visited on trips from Xi'an and no longer are
located in "forbidden zones". Several pyramids have
small museums attached to them.

The Great White Pyramid itself
(rather than the photograph), as described by
Sheahan, remains unidentified.

New Photorecon images from the farshore
web
site they show a large number of pyramids in
three areas. After careful examination of the images
you can see that they are not of the same pyramids
as the ones taken by Hartwig Hausdorf

The second photograph is a larger
view of the lower center in the first Photograph. It
shows a few large pyramids and a large number of
small pyramids.

The other nice thing about this image
is, we know exactly where it was taken. As you can see
on the map the original large image cover an area that
includes the township of Xianyang.
That puts the Pyramid where the letter 'n' is in name
Xianyang on the
Map.

Pyramids and pyramidal structures
are a worldwide phenomena, found in Egypt, Peru,
Central America, America's Mississippi Valley,
France, Polynesia. Now we can add two more
locations, China and Japan.

For decades, one of the few clues
that China has pyramids was a grainy, black and
white photo of a huge, shadowy, pyramidal form. It
is an aerial shot, taken by W.W.II USAF pilot James
Gaussman, as he flew over China delivering supplies
from India to Chunking, in the spring of 1945.

According to the old Chinese legend,
over one hundred pyramids built in China are
evidence of visits paid by aliens to our planet.

At the very beginning of the
century, two Australian merchants traveled to the
vast plains of Sichuan in the central part of China,
where they discovered over one hundred pyramids. The
Australians asked the superior of the local
monastery about the pyramids, and the superior said
that they were “very old.” The first record of the
pyramids was written over 5,000 years ago;
therefore, it is very likely that they are even
older.

The merchants also discovered that
the pyramids belonged to the epoch when China was
ruled by ancient emperors who believed in the
existence of extraterrestrial civilizations.
Moreover, the emperors themselves insisted that they
were ancestors “of the sons of the sky, who had
landed the Earth on iron dragons.” Aliens are
alleged to have been the constructors
of the pyramids.

In March 1994, Austrian Hartwig
Hausdorf made a trip to the area close to the city
of Xi'an, the capital of the Shaanxi province, which
is situated in the central part of China. These
territories were closed for foreigners. During the
tour, the Austrian discovered six legendary
pyramids. Hartwig Hausdorf organized another tour to
China in October 1994, this time with a video camera.
Hausdofr managed to shoot an 18 minute film. When
Hausdorf returned home, he decided to watch the film
that he had shot in China. However, the Austrian was
extremely surprised to see more pyramids in the
background. He counted over 100 pyramids standing in
an area of 2,000 square kilometers.

Some of the pyramids are currently
in very poor condition, as they were plundered by
the local citizens. The pyramids are mostly built of
loam and soil; some farmers destroyed the pyramids
to take the loam and soil to their fields and used
them in the farms.

When Hausdorf decided to continue
his investigation of the pyramids, he faced lots of
problems. Although he was allowed to continue his
investigation, the Chinese government banned any
excavations in the area.

What kind of constructions are these
pyramids? The heights of the pyramids situated in
the Sichuan plains are from 25 to 100 meters, with
the exception of only one pyramid situated to the
north of the rest constructions. It is the so-called
Great White Pyramid, which is said to be about 300
meters high. This pyramid can be truly called the
mother of all Chinese pyramids.

Recently, the Chinese authorities
declared the area where the Great White Pyramid
stands a closed region, as a launching pad for
rockets is situated in that region.

The Chinese pyramids astonishingly
resemble the pyramids in the Central America. Is it
possible that the South American pyramids were also
constructed by the sons of the sky?

Some Home
Advisor professional builders admit to being
baffled by the process of ancient pyramid
construction. The amount of labor that goes into
pyramid construction, whether made from soil or stone,
is difficult to imagine for even the most
experienced Home Advisor building team. While
Chinese legends may imply that aliens built these
pyramids, a building experiment using Home Advisor
experts may shed light on whether the pyramids could
have been made by the hand of man.

Chinese
Pyramids - Location

The pyramids of China are
approximately 100 ancient mounds, many of which were
used for burial. Most of them are located within 100
kilometers of the city of Xi'an, on the Qin Chuan
Plains in the Shaanxi Province, central China.

The Burma Tibetan Pyramid is called
'The Pyramid of Gathering'. It is allegedly a bright
white pyramid that is well preserved in the Bhutan
Province. The limestone is still preserved beyond
imagination. It supposedly glows under light. This
pyramid was spotted by U.S. pilots in China in WW2
flying over the hump in Burma. It is mentioned much
by an Irish author Mona Rolf. It same size as the
Great Pyramid in Egypt.

A three story pyramid dating 5000
years back has been discovered in north China's
Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

The pyramid, which looks like a
trapezoidal hill from afar, is located on a hill one
kilometer north of Sijiazi Town, Aohan County. The
pyramid is about 30 meters long and 15 meters wide
at its base.

This is considered the best
preserved pyramid built during the Hongshan Culture
period that has been found so far, said Guo Dasun,
an archaeologist in charge of the excavation.

Seven tombs and one altar were also
found on the top of the pyramid. Archaeologists also
discovered a number of pottery pieces with the
asterisk character inscribed on the inner wall. The
asterisk character is believed to be related to the
understanding of ancient people on astrology.

Among the culture relics excavated
from one of the seven tombs are a bone flute and a
stone ring and a full- sized stone statue of Goddess
unearthed from another tomb.

What astonished the archeologists is
a one palm sized stone genital found on the inner
wall of a tomb with a small stone statue of Goddess
below.

Guo Dasun said that most of these
relics are found for the first time and will shed
light on studying the origin of Chinese
civilization.

The pyramids in Egypt have always
been regarded as a mystery of ancient human
civilization. Another mysterious ancient
construction that resembles the refulgence has been
found in China. Dubbed the "Pyramids of China", the
Western Xia Tombs include nine mausoleums housing
the imperial family and 207 tombs belonging to dukes
and ministers.

In recent years, scientific research
and exploration have been conducted at the site,
buried in the wilderness of Helan Mountain in West
China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region , in hopes of
decoding the sudden disappearance of the Western Xia
civilization.

Located 30 kilometers west of
Yinchuan , capital of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region,
the Western Xia Tombs cover an area of 40 square
kilometers; they are located on the eastern slope of
the Helan Mountain range, just south of the Gunzhong
Pass.

This step pyramid, 31.58 by 31.58
meters square and 12.4 meters high, is located at
Ziban, now in China. It fronts on the KukNae castle
(Ziban) to the soth west, and 12 stone plates, the
largest one of them measures 2.7m long and 4.5m
high, leaned against the first step. There was four
guardian stones, looks like a dolmen on the step,
but survived just one which you can see below. It is
called 'Paechong', means guardian tomb in korean.
What a strange post looks like a sphinx in Egypt.

It was guessed having constructed in
Kokuryo period, maybe before A.D. 500, but nobody
know whose tomb. It was once known a stone tomb of
the great Kwangkaeto, but now a destroyed stone
pyramid, nearby the stone monument of the great
Kwangkaeto, should be of the great, and so this
pyramid might be a tomb of king Zangsu.
'Zangkunchong' means a tomb of general in korean.

By the last discovery, new fact that
the head part of stone coffins in the inner chamber
put towards Chonzi (crater lake) on Paektusan (Mt.
PaekTu), to the northeast, is unearthed.

The satellite image above was what
began the search for the Chinese Pyramids so many
years ago, and now as they have been found and placed
on Google Earth markers the hunt is easier. But the
particular group above remained illusive. One of the
reasons is that the area is no longer only farmland,
many of the pyramids are actually in the cities now...
but we managed to find the ctoup above... though some
of the smaller ones have been completely destroyed.
